By Jim Southard

We say it every year: “Back to school already!? That summer flew by!” As you get your new list of students and make your way back into your classroom, we want to help you ensure that your Lightspeed Audio System is in tip-top shape on the first day of school.

Here are 8 easy steps that should only take you a few minutes.

Unpack your Lightspeed System from Storage.

Check the code on the back of each component to make sure they match.

Connect power cables and make sure that all connections are tight.

Turn on your Lightspeed system.

Double-check to confirm that the batteries match the microphone. (Need new batteries? Click here!)

Fully charge microphone batteries overnight before the first day of school.

Use a working microphone to test and adjust system volume.

Start talking! Your system is now ready to use.

Individual teachers can perform this simple set-up routine, so feel free to share these easy tips with your team!
